The woke craze and gender ideology infected the banking sector as well. A director of the Swiss bank Credit Suisse, which was dancing on the brink of collapse, is "gender fluid", wears a wig and dresses as a woman, while the collapsed American Signature Bank trained its employees to use the correct, neutral pronouns.
As is known, two banks, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank, went bankrupt in the United States within a few days. The bank panic also reached Europe, one of the continent's largest banks, Credit Suisse, also came close to bankruptcy. By Thursday morning, sentiment had eased somewhat after Credit Suisse announced it would receive a $54 billion capital injection from the Swiss National Bank.
There is a saying in English that critics of woke culture like to utter. It says:
Go woke, go broke! (In Hungarian: "be alert, go bankrupt!")
IN VIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS, THIS HAS TAKEN ON A WHOLE NEW MEANING.
Scott Shay, chairman of the failed Signature Bank, co-hosted a company seminar last October that spent more than an hour teaching employees how to use neuter pronouns like "Ze" and "Hir."
In the video, which went viral on social media but was quickly removed, Shay is seen next to Finn Brigham, a corporate gender consultant. Brigham reportedly identifies as a genderqueer trans man.
According to a New York Post article, Shay began the session by proudly boasting that Signature Bank was "the first bank in the United States to have an openly gay man on its board of directors."
The seminar taught how to use the pronouns she, hers, he, his, him, they, them, ze and hir correctly.
The bank Credit Suisse is also at the forefront of gender issues
'Gender fluid' Philip Bunce, who is known to sometimes wear wigs and women's clothes to work, was named to the Financial Times & HERoes Champions of Women in Business list in 2018, which annually ranks 100 corporate leaders who are 'supporting women in business' .
The director, known as Pips Bunce, was the financial institution's head of global markets, core engineering integration components, and finished 32nd.
Maybe we should have dealt with the numbers instead of the wokeness. But, as they say:
Go woke, go Broke!
